Leaving your future hubby in charge

Yes and he didn’t plan it so we’re going in the summer 8 months after the wedding. Which is actually fine bc it’s better for my schedule and we spent so much money on the wedding it gives us more time to save.

My husband planned our entire honeymoon. I had never flown before, but he has so I left it up to him to plan flights and booking where we would stay. We went to California which is where is best man lives so he also talked with him to determine good places to stay in the area. My husband is generally really good at planning trips so I wasn't really concerned at all. Since your fiance is a last minute planner, I don't think I would rely on him to plan your honeymoon by himself. Maybe the two of you can plan the honeymoon together.

FH is a terrible planner and I have to plan things wayyyy early.. so no lol. I think it's a great way to get him involved in something but I totally understand being stressed about it.

I am by far the more well-traveled one in the relationship. I tried to encourage him to plan the honeymoon but it stressed him out far too much so now we're "working together" on it (I'm doing most of it). If you're freaking out about it, then maybe you could create a timeline for him to keep him on track? At the end of the day either you have to trust him to do it or you need to take on the responsibility yourself.

I am letting my FH plan the honeymoon as well but we agreed on where we want to go since it's just going to be a long weekend for our honeymoon. I am also trying to be hands off and let him plan the rehearsal dinner luckily there aren't too many details that need to be done for that one.

Hi Taylor
Men aren't as detail oriented as we are, not great at planning, they have no sense of urgency, and need lots of "guidance" another way of saying we ladies must be involved in all planning !!

I left my FH in charge of the honeymoon. I was actually joking about him being in charge of the honeymoon but I didn’t have to say something twice to him about it and he has the whole thing planned. He is not a big planner and normally waits till the last minute to do things, so I was shocked that he had it all taken care of. I have no clue where we are going and he’s not telling me till we get to the airport when we leave. This stresses me out a lot because I’m a planner and like to know all the details, but he is so excited about what he planed and that it’s a surprise to me, that I’m sure I’ll love whatever we do.

My husband planned ours and it was great!

My husband likes to plan our travels normally so I typically leave it to him. I'm sure he will pull it all together

Oh my gosh that sounds amazing, hopefully that is what mine is doing also lol

Yep! My FH is also planning honeymoon. It's funny because he's usually awful at planning, but he has a ton of google sheets and has already booked everything. We're heading to Corsica a couple days after wedding!

If you're super worried about it, try having him plan a mini weekend getaway first. If he does great with that, then you know he'll nail the honeymoon!

My FH has planned several little getaways for us in the neighboring state and they've always been so fun and low-key. I would definitely trust him to plan a big trip, but I'm also such a planner I'd be to nosey to not know what he was planning. I love giving my input!
